12'6 Tour by Hobie

Transporting a surfboard can be a pain. Hobie offers an inflatable option (weighing 28 pounds) that packs small enough to take on an airplane or carry to a remote lakeshore. Sold as a kit, the 12’6 Tour comes with a break-apart paddle, backpack, and a pump to inflate the board. On the water, the board is about 12 feet long and 32 inches wide—a solid platform on which to stand tall and paddle into the waves.
